We're Still Alive!

We got rid of the Internet for now and that's why I haven't posted in a while. So here is a quick update of what's been going on in our lives these past couple of months:
- We got the final ultra sound of our beautiful baby. She was so cute, sucking her thumb and everything:)
- We made a quick trip to the grand canyon.
- Mine and Eric's family threw me the baby shower of a century!
- I was diagnosed with gestational diabetes.
- Eric started a new job.

We only have pics of the Grand Canyon trip, but baby shower pic should be here soon!


Breathtaking views!


The five girls!!!


Eric and his little squirl friend.


The most exciting thing in our lives is the anticipation of our baby, only 3 weeks and 2 days away!!!

If she doesn't decide to come earlier, I am being induced on the Dec 12th, one week early because I have gestational diabetes. I can't wait to meet the baby, and to be able to eat yummy food again!!!! I also will be glad when my fingers aren't sore anymore due to all the finger pricking I have to do. But it's all worth it for our little miracle that will be here before we know it. There's so much to to look forward to these next couple of weeks. We will let everyone know when she arrives!

For the Love of the Spine


Eric has been trying to figure out what to do with his life for the past few months. He loves real estate but feels like something is missing. After lots of prayers, the answer finally came, and he is going to be a chiropractor. I was so surprised when he told me, but we are both really excited to have a goal and a plan. So a minimum of 5 more years of school ahead and a move to a new state for at least 4 of them will be in our future, something never before anticipated. I just keep being reminded, you never know what the Lord has in store!

P.S. I can't sleep! Do you see the time? WHY?!?! It's been like this for weeks. Did anyone else have this problem during pregnancy?

Who loves the in-law?

Eric's family was so sweet! We made a quick trip to Ceder City for a family reunion and his extended family threw me a little baby shower. It's feels so good to be loved!

Thanks but no thanks!

Thank you to everyone who tried to help me figure out the whole baby bedding thing, but I realized I asked your opinion too early. I am going to keep brain storming and I will post pictures of my final ones for you to see, so no need to vote unless you want to. I am just not sold on any of these. So wish me luck as I let the wheels keep on turning in my crazy head.

The Baby Bedding Blues

Eric's mom and I are making the baby bedding for our little December visitor. It's up to me to design it, but I have never done this before and I am getting so frustrated. So here are a few of my ideas, of course they will look a little different in person, but you get the idea. Please give me your honest opinion and let me know which ones you like or if I need to start over.


#1 This is just a blanket.
Vote on a blanket and a crib set that you like together. Thanks!

#2 Another blanket#3 The pink around the edges on all of these is satin.
It just looks weird as a picture.#4 #5

This is idea of I want all of the skirts to look like. I am just not good enough on the computer to figure out how to make my designs not an exact square.

Thanks for your help everyone!!!! The poles are open :)
